Our Earthworks contractors Hawk completed their work at the end of September. It has been a fantastic achievement involving moving a hillside of over 200,000 tonnes of earth and remodelling the arisings on site.The result is we have a superb backdrop of hillsides around the basin.We will be seeding the hillsides with wildflowers which over the coming years will give us an array of colour at flowering time.

Gjp construction are now installing piles,pontoons and services to the facility.

Water has been ordered from CRT for early December for filling the basin which then will lead onto the 2 week stilling test which when passed will allow us to remove the 6m plug of earth from our entrance structure and make the connection to the navigation in readiness for opening for business by Easter 2017
